So many are so easily distracted by shiny bobbles and babbling voices.
We used to read books, then they added pictures, then the pictures were supplemented with captions, then we stopped reading.
Television used to be information followed up with some light entertainment, then "reality tv" became the standard and now AI writes the scripted narrative.
Our phones used to be connections to other people, then we could put them in our pockets, and then they became "telescreens" connecting us to other worlds, many we don't even want let alone need.
The (brave) new world has become otherworldly, and unreal.
My thoughts are: at some point you have to turn off the outside distractions and there are so many. Time to build a smoll fire and next to it, raise a smoll tent, snuggle inside with your best friend, listen to the sounds of night and if you have to go pee...well, it's dark; go in the bush. Return to cubby, resume peace. Repeat til the blankets aren't enough, and then welcome your cozy bed for the cold months. :)
Dr. Sherri Tenpenny today (June 7, 2025):
"Hundreds of stories of dead babies, children, athletes, and seniors don’t seen to matter to POTUS or to the pro-vaccine, rabid members of Congress.
What is it going to take to be HEARD and for this government to TAKE ACTION?
Be bold. Be brave. Be strong. Take courageous steps. Do the right thing.
ELIMINATE THESE SHOTS."
